EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the exquisite Chinese pink, Dianthus chinensis, also known as Dianthus plumarius or the Carnation. The image is derived from an original illustration by Desire Bois, featured in Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse," published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The Chinese pink is a beloved perennial flower in the Dianthus family, native to China and the Himalayas. With its distinctive fragrant blooms and fringed petals, this flower has captivated gardeners and horticulturists for centuries. The vibrant pink hue and intricate details of the petals are beautifully rendered in this chromolithograph, showcasing the meticulous artistry of the Victorian era. The Chinese pink was a popular addition to Victorian gardens, both for its alluring fragrance and its elegant appearance. The flower's ruffled petals, which resemble the pleats of a crinoline dress, were said to symbolize love and affection. In fact, the name "Dianthus" comes from the Greek words "dios" meaning god, and "anthos" meaning flower, reflecting the flower's divine beauty. This chromolithograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Chinese pink and the art of botanical illustration during the Victorian era. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of nature and the skill of the artist in capturing its essence. Whether displayed in a Victorian-inspired home or a modern garden, the Chinese pink continues to inspire and delight.
